Thank you,

Notes:

• Iyas, Palestinian, from West Bank
• Iyas is a displaced person himself
• A large portion of Iyas’s own down was confiscated Oct 20, 2025 – number of his family members were shot and some are still going through surgery and recovery
• Iyas is from Sarta, hence the name Sartawi
• Will focus on Gaza instead of West Bank
• Occupation continues to carry out silent genocide
• It is the Occupation’s policy to make life difficult for Palestinians
• 90% of Gaza has already been destroyed
• 601 Palestinians have been killed since the so called Ceasefire
• 1200+ ceasefire violations by IDF terrorists
• Weekly floods destroyed people’s tents
• Even when the tents are new, they are not suitable for human living
• Life is very hard in the tents
• There is no sense of privacy whatsoever
• Over 20,000 children were martyred – many born and killed during the genocide itself
• 
• Team is assocaited with many journalists
• Donation money is sent to help people in gaza
• The Mutual Aid helps with food, medical expenses, schools and individual family expenses
• Distribution of aid also considers children’s and other’s emotional needs as well, with entertainment for displaced people, through music, clowns, etc.
• They sponsor musicians to entertain orphans and orphanages
• Also partner with Civil Defense team to repair and build tents 
• Also supporting two churches in Gaza, got letters of appreciation from them
• Project Hope Palestine is also supporting several schools as well
• Got letters of appreciation from hospitals as well
